NO, (10 - LevelDifference) (10% Max) suites me better.

NO

No XP gain from a forces kill, except if the forcs owner is in sector,
probably.
Full XP gain with a TFP kill. Why the heck you like to treat that
different than an ordinary kill? A TFP hit is far more difficult, you
rely on scout reports, I need two screens to fire on you while you can
move away in the time I open one screen.

XP gain for base kills as you like. If you turn it that definitly one is
dying per round ... then lower XP gain even more.

YES, besides weapon production for KEA and Mawlor is imbalanced IMHO.

I support Carnaughs position, besides I do not know Hawks implementation

YES ... or Tiger fires every 3 seconds and I fire every 8 to 10 seconds,
not relay fair.

No idea.
I think the team is assigned by Middy, so let teh team do it and others
who like to help join them.

No limit. 50 is not a limit worth to implement ... (100 bases for the
alliance :-) )

Limit wars, with 50 or no alliance limit, its not necessary to make
sister and doughter alliances.

Sort by reverse entry date. This gives more tactical possibilities, and
is for free to implement. (I suggested that allready for fleet battles
in the old way as it also had given nice tactical opertunities)

Probably I'm as well told to shut up, but I missed that mail though.
